Got comorbidities? Get Comirnaty™!


Comirnaty is apparently supposed to be a <a href="https://www.theverge.com/tldr/2021/8/23/22637955/spikevax-moderna-comirnaty-pfizer-fda-approval-names">portmanteau of several words</a> — community, immunity, COVID-19, and mRNA

by trying to be everything it ends up being nothing, except maybe embarrassing.  what a horrible, horrible name.  doesn't even sound like a drug.

Virginia today


+3500 cases
+40 deaths



Worst numbers in many months. It seems we are riding the wave up.


I hope we don’t shut down but am getting a bit worried about kids school.

Thousands of cases tied to a UK music festival and the detection of a variant of the Delta variant they are calling the festival variant.  Note: The story points out this is not a new strain  but yet another variant

EXCLUSIVEAlmost 5,000 infections have been linked to the Boardmasters festival in Cornwall, and with half a million music lovers at even larger events over the Bank Holiday, officials fear revellers are being hit by a new strain of the Delta variant

Fairfax County is mandating all student athletes be vaccinated in order to participate in athletics. Yay!

The small but very vocal anti-vaxx crowd in Fairfax County goes crazy!

This is a disgusting and heinous overreach on your part! You have to accept exemptions and may not mandate this for participation. This is illegal and unethical!

Wait, when did we hold our Shirley Jackson-esque lottery to decide who this task fell to this year? It’s not FAIR! It’s not FAIR, I TELL YOU! We should draw again!!
